I feel sorry for your diff.

there is going to be some serious torque there with the blower.

I havent read the thread but that looks like a VQ45. beutiful engine. That engine put out 206kw at standard in the "gentlemens agreement" it and it was under rated quite a lot.

I put in a guess at 320RWKW. ;)

Sweet mate looks really good. I am in talks with a mate at the moment about putting this model v8 or a lexus v8 in a r33 gtr and make the 4 wheel drive work and add a turbo. Whats the room like around the brake booster and the clutch master cylinder, and how much clearence is there around the exhuasts on both sides???

Good luck, its a bloody good idea!!!

No room for turbos thats for sure, not without body mods and i want this to be 100% street legal so im not going anywhere near that. I built a custom set of headers to turn down really sharp otherwise they would be sitting on the rails.

Be nice to see one in a GTR, lots and lots of fabrication... just not something im bothered with atm... Ive still got my GTR and im trying to get rid of it, it just doesnt interest me as much as this does.

Well it would be a big single turbo so both exhausts would kind of be like a log manifold facing foword, and then run the dump back under the passenger side engine mount or something aroun there. The biggest hastle for me as although its his car I will be doing all the work is cutting and shutting the sump to suit an engine that 1 has a totally different bolt pattern on the bottom then secondly is 2 cylinders shorter in length but wider!!!

My friend has a T-trim on a holden/isuzu rodeo 3.2 6cyl which was stroked to 3.7l and it pushes just over 400rwkw with 25psi.

But oh my god are those things damn loud at just idle!! The BOVs vent constantly and they scream. To the uninitiated it sounds like something is wrong from the loud grinding sound from the supercharger.

Somebody mentioned about your diff and torque. This rodeo had a new ford 9 inch and on its first pass (slicks) it smashed the living daylights out of it. Fitted up a strange full spool and next time out spat out an axle. Fitted in some moser axles and tried again and then it ripped the front of the diff housing off. This is with a six so yeah its gonna make some grunt with your package.

A t-trim at full noise on your motor in an R33 will run deep into the 11's if not a 10 if you can put it down.

I had considered putting a Q45 engine into a CPV35 Skyline but was told they weigh so much more than a VQ35DE engine.

Did you weigh the engine at all as I would be interested to know.

A V35 V8 non supercharged would be a nice daily driver i think.

Cheers

Messy engine WTF??? Looks factory to me?

R34 - wouldn't be much point throwing the V8 into the V35, yes it would push a bit more power, but you may as well just go with forced induction on the VQ35. Even if you're looking at a cost point of view, pick up a lower spec V35 without the VQ35 and throw in a late mode VQ25DET from a stagea :rant:

I like people doing something different like this. Well done. As for the power it will produce, any decent engine with forced induction will produce easily 100rwkW per litre...so it means 450rwkW for this sucker!!!!! GTR drivers start pissing your pants. As for if its a strong enough engine....coated pistons from the factory and 6 bolt bottom end. Thats stronger than your RB26!!!!!

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
